Hello. I am Mami Iwamoto. I would like to tell about Jonathan Swift. He was born in England in 1667 and famous as a satiric writer and an essayist. Especially, "A Modest Proposal" and "Gulliver's Travels", which were written by him, are well known in the world. Both two literary works were published anonymously.I don't know why he hid his name and I wonder about that. Satire, which he did, is a style of criticizing people or ideas in humorous way and the goal is to make improvements. Then, I think there are some relates between anonymously and meaning of satire.
